Yes! I hope this stays in the fog. Awesome shirt. I agree about the design placement, in that if it were off-center a little bit, it would have been perfect. Still, definitely one I'll buy if it prints.

Hi Everyone! This is my second Derby design. I'm excited to enter again.

This design traces the derby's theme (RED!) through the flags of the world's most populous countries. Everyone seems to want red in their flag, so I made a red-licious flag for the world out of the scarlet elements in individual nations' banners.

Part of the fun is piecing together which flags are which, but I'll tell you at least that the top left-hand corner is China and the bottom right-hand corner is Peru.

Some people say this poor little fella lost his love in an terrible accident with a paper shredder. Others say she abandoned him and escaped to Rio de Janeiro with a Post-It. Which story is true, I don't know. But this poor little fella didn't stand the suffering and succumbed to overwhelming pain of love.

Nice work on this Patrick but those clouds are bugging me. They have nice form, but since you didn't stay true to the light sourcing you used for the main elements they feel very flat and pasted on, not like they're actually in the background. I'm sure this will do well nontheless

Not to synch my nerd goggle too tight here, but it's canonically sound for this species to be red. There are even grey and bluish ones in some of the literature and video games, but I'll save those for the grey and bluish derbies.

thank you for the comments. as to familiarity, odysseyroc and myself had a design we had worked on together for a daily. This was one of the panels I had drawn and od-roc had colored. However the the daily was declined. So I went back to the panel and recolored the line work adding tonal shading and roughing and fading to produce what you see.
